Case Study: CloZee
About CloZee ![A woman with long hair pulled back is shown against a dark background with red light streaks crossing in front of her. She is wearing a high-collared, dark outfit.](data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg'%20viewBox='0%200%20298%20445'%3E%3C/svg%3E)
A purveyor of lucid sounds, French producer Chloé Herry is a worldly and rhythmic figure in the electronic music atmosphere. Now based in Denver, she has made a name for herself by skewing the usual curves of bass music and evoking a spiritual and evolutionary sound. Known by her alias “CloZee,” she has carved her unique path by bending the traditional boundaries of bass music and infusing her work with a spiritual and evolutionary essence. CloZee partnered with Symphonic for the distribution of her highly anticipated third studio album, “Microworlds,” released on July 21, 2023.
First, we distributed her music.
Maximizing her global reach, we distributed CloZee’s music to our wide network of over 200 DSPs (Digital Service Providers), ensuring that her music resonated with audiences worldwide, creating a well-deserved wave of exposure and engagement for her music.
Next, we got her a Client Manager.
To ensure a seamless and fruitful collaboration, we assigned a dedicated client manager to CloZee, who maintained consistent communication through weekly status and feedback calls. This personalized approach allowed us to address all aspects of the marketing strategy, execution and general operations, resulting in a rewarding partnership for both parties.
Now, we came up with a strategy…
Together, our teams’ worked together to craft a release schedule for her upcoming album launch for “Microworlds”. In tandem with effective marketing drivers, the well-crafted release plan featured three singles, each accompanied by professionally produced official videos. Next, we needed a powerful marketing arsenal to bolster the album’s impact. The comprehensive campaign included targeted press outreach, strategic digital advertising, engaging short form content, prominent artist features, and electrifying festival performances. Additionally, the announcement of a 45 city album release tour added further momentum to the campaign.
We then forged strong partnerships with DSP (Digital Service Provider) platforms, proactively presenting the release schedule and marketing plan well in advance, allowing for adequate lead time for editorial consideration, and enhancing the album’s chances of being prominently featured on DSPs. Notably, the marketing efforts extended to engaging Pride programming, showcasing CloZee’s commitment to inclusivity and community engagement. 🔊
